AP withdraws KCNA photo, saying it was altered
SEOUL, July 18 (Yonhap) -- The Associated Press (AP) has asked its client agencies worldwide to withdraw a North Korean news agency's photo of flooding in the North's capital, saying it appears to have been altered through digital technology.

The photo (below) taken by the North's Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) was distributed to AP members and customers on July 16 and purports to show floods that hit Pyongyang a day earlier.
